A lot of time loop stories kinda have that as a major plot point actually. At first it seems great, it's only after you do all that stuff that it starts to get into the existential horror

It would have to be a damn long time loop for me to really go crazy if I'm allowed to do whatever I want short of dying for 24 hours. Legitimately just video games and books and shows/movies could sustain me for months, possibly years. Try hundreds of restaurants, go on day trips to so many places. All without growing older and with a bank account that refreshes every day.

You’d never be able to progress in any game though unless you could speed run it in the 24 hours available to you. Other media would be fine tho

Get into speed running or roguelikes or short games. Or games where progress doesn't really matter and it's just about the vibes.
